    Two-Time Cy Young Winner Calls It Quits
    Two-Time Cy Young Winner Calls It Quits (msn.com)

    I've seen a lot of Kluber's starts the past dozen years.
    Kluber was dynamite with that nasty arsenal he had.
    The dude was a dirt dog.

    His 2017 Cy Young season with the Indians was as good as it got.
    265 K's, he was almost unhittable.
    Dominant for six consecutive years, then the arm got tired,
    All power pitcher's arms get tired, unless you're freaks like Nolan Ryan or Randy Johnsson who did it for twenty years.

    Nice thirteen-year career Corey.
    (He got paid well)

      Yeah, spot on.
      After, or during the 2020 season his arm just went limp.
      He pitched well over 1000 innings in that six-year run, that's a lot of stress on a power pitchers' arm.

      JR Richard had a monster six-year block too, then he had that stroke.
      Shame, I wanted to see another six years from JR.

            The Chris Bosio of pitchers. lol

            I watched Bosio no hit the Red Sox, from the first pitch onward Bosio had this giant shit eating grin on his face saying, "I own you today."
            Yep, he owned.

                If I ever have a kid which I won't I'd put a baseball and glove in his hand in the crib. Damn baseball studs make money, especially today!
